The Last Rhee Witch is one of School Library Journal’s Best Middle Grade Books of 2024 🥳 It’s an honor to see my book among these titles (check them out—link in profile)! Also thanks to everyone’s fav, the always uplifting @adriannacuevas.bsky.social for sending the list my way! 🫶🏻

for anyone trying to extricate yourself from the clutches of Amazon: bookstores make more than a third of their money between now & New Year’s, & most bookstores ship nationwide 💌
